Spice up your Grilling with Dry Rubs and Blends
BBQ Dry Rub recipes and Spice Blends are herb and spice mixtures that get worked or rubbed into raw food, especially meat and fish, prior to cooking and are very popular in BBQ and grilling recipes.
They're used instead of liquid marinades when it's important to maintain the original texture of foods however the food that's been rubbed can still be left to "marinate" to allow the spice flavors penetrate the food.
In many cases these blends have distinct Southern and Mexican tastes and flavors however there's an Asian influence that's gaining popularity as well.
Meats like Pork Ribs, Pulled Pork and Beef Brisket all benefit from time left to sit with a nice spice blend before a low and slow barbecue.
In most cases BBQ rubs use salt for flavor and sugars to help with carmelization of the grilled foods.
Other typical ingredients include chili and cayenne pepper, garlic, onion powder, black pepper, paprika and dry mustard.
Enhance the flavor of virtually any BBQ meats including pork, ribs, chicken and fish with these versatile rub recipes.
